Of course it does ,, I understand what I paid and what I negotiate ... 2017 BMW 430 i , with 5 years Free maintenance , MSRP $48K, i paid $37K, $11K below MSRP with MAINTENANCE !!!!!!

Are you buying or looking to buy an Acura RDX?

I might ,, if I find a good deal

OK. I'm one of those waiters (not the restaurant kind) who will be standing by to see how things look in the Fall.

Cool, then it makes 2 of us ....

I am going to wait until they announce color choices for 2020. If no new combos with Ebony interior, then I will try to get outgoing 2019 at good discount. Fortunately I don't need a car yet, so can wait ... and I used to be a waiter and bartender in my youth :cheers:

Where are you located again? I need to visit your dealer.

I am in Southern California . BMW dealer is Shelly BMW off the 5 freeway. I bought it last year right on Labor day .

So I went for a test drive yesterday just for the fun of it. Car is nice, but I did not even bother asking for the price. They only had one demo car, and another one was available for sale. They did not even have Advanced package on the lot to check out. Other people where checking out the other car, and salesman kept telling (without me asking) that the cars are flying off the lot and that this is the best car produced (yeah, whatever). Dealers are in control at this point, but the high pressure tactics do not work on me, and I did not even bother talking about the numbers, I told him that I need to think about it for 4-6 month. My 2008 RDX still works great with 170K miles, and the trade-in would be pathetic 1.5-3K range. I am no rush by any means.
I will re-evaluate market in the fall, and will get in in January for minimum 8-10% under MSRP Advanced package.

Wow...pretty heavy BS out of your mouth...especially when you don't know one thing about me...personally. Just guessing and slinging arrows....and jealousy is involved.
I have no ego and just explain my life's experiences and what I do know about my car buying AND selling experiences over the years.

So, what a hypocritical low down human you are. Do you stop and read the BS you throw at other's when you do not know them? Hell no...sit behind your tech device and throw out BS like a little kid. When you don't
know truths...then what ugly humans do is belittle and degrade others. Look in the mirror....who are you really. I know!! You started the BS by first being jealous, then ASSUMIJNG things that aren't true...then
thinking you can teach me something about car buying. What a joke. I don't have to have an ego. Just experience. Don't like it, don't read it. But, if you answer, stop being a kid and lashing out with no clue of the
truths....instead of a decent person who investigates before passing judgment.

I'm a 20 yr. military vet, and a Vietnam vet....and I served so assholes like you can live in a free country and spew hate and animus at anybody you feel like. You are an ugly person....I feel sorry for you.

Not arrogant at all. Just facts. And you are mixing up facts. 2019 RDX's...are not getting $5K off the MSRP. Not now. Your "comparison": doesn't hold water. YES...2018's are getting decent discounts...WHY is that???
The NEW '19's are on the lots. It's always that way. When I talk of "deals" I'm talking NOW....new, fresh, models on the lots. And, again, they won't be selling for $5K off the MSRP later in the year. Just my my professional
opinion based on lots of yrs doing this. Just keep the facts you are trying to dispute straight. NOT 2018's was I talking about. Never did. OK???

And for all those that are not knowing what you speak about....in a hot market area....they are flying off the lots. The day I was there recently and made my deal....I was there for about 2-3 hrs. They sold 3, 2019's and took
deposits on 11 more. That's in addition to what they sold already the prior 10 days. They have one of the highest allocations in the country. They are now #3 in 2019's sold, and #9 in the U.S. on all Acuras sold, month to
date. FACTS. They now have 30 on the lot, since again, they have one of the highest allocations in the U.S. So more are coming in....often. And they are moving OFF the lot....fast.
Again, just more FACTS. Why do you folks dispute or hate facts? Jealousy I guess.

It's ironic that you yap about respect and hiding behind a computer screen but you're often the one being an ass to other people. Everybody here manages to interact civilly with one another except for you.

It's true. I just saw in another thread he called everyone a bunch of idiots. Gotta love the lack of self-awareness :chuckle:

Based on some of your rhetoric, I was hoping your screen name was not indicative of your background. Sadly, I see I was wrong. Now that you have played the "vet card", what's next? Personally, I would rather you stick to relating your vehicle transaction prowess. No need to tell me to bypass your posts, already in progress.

Another thing to remember, Acura has already set the price fairly low to start with compared to all of it's competition.

I based my comment on the reviews I have read and comparison videos watched

Kids, if we can't refrain from personal attacks, I'll be handing out vacations.
Stay on topic and leave the insults out of here

I have a funny feeling that this Colonel dude is just a shill "prop" ing his great buddy the Sales Manager of an Acura dealer . Maybe he works at that Acura dealer , LMAO ....

Hey, does anyone have any information regarding the Invoice Price on the new Acura RDX?

actually just an attempt to get the thread back on topic.....but wait, I thought that this sort of information required secret elite access to a well place GM and the experience of 62 prior car purchases all below what anyone else ever paid.
Thanks for the information. I am actually just waiting a little bit for the prices to drop in the fall. Then will probably be getting a White A-Spec with Ebony interior (maybe red...still not sure). Still need to do a very extended test drive over the summer to find how it behaves on my daily commute route.

Make that 3 f us......

Not sure how accurate that Car Connection website is; there's a $400.00 uncharge for Majestic Black Pearl that the site does not add

Black is a premium color now along with red, Apex blue and dogshit brown.

I just went on Truecar.com and got quotes from three Houston dealers for a 2018 MDX with technology package for $45,500. MSRP is $49,595.

Your opinion is no different than mine. If you want to deal in facts, lets see what you said a few posts back...

It sure looks to be me as if you were talking about his purchase of a 2014 RDX. Am I wrong? In any event nobody said 19's were selling for $5k off right now. But they most certainly will be in 6-12mths. Mark my words.....

Do you guys think the ongoing trade negotiations (US/Canada) will have an impact on the prices in the ongoing months? Both in US and in Canada, but mainly in Canada as the prices for the customers might go up if there is 25% tariff

I think Acura (and most manufacturers) will keep their prices as-is and absorb their cost increase due to the tariffs on steel and aluminum. Otherwise it would really hurt the sales. My opinion FWIW.

In regards to invoice pricing, I was able to build and price the 2019 through Costco's auto-buying program yesterday. If you're a member, I hear the service is a great way to get a close-to-best deal with minimal effort. Yes, you can always play hardball for a better price, but you can also save some stress and time this way. FWIW, this is what they list for an AWD tech model (my ideal choice).

Edit to fix the table formatting

MSRP:
Invoice:

$42,500
$40,342

Destination
$995

Total
$43,495
$41,337

Just found out a dealer in SoCal asking for an A-Spec FWD white at $43,383.00 . That is more than a $1562 discount after you add the SoCal destination charge $44,945.
So the price is definitely going down


https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...modelCode1=RDX

On the Autotrader listing under "price breakdown" it clearly states that the MSRP (which would already include destination) for this specific vehicle is $44495.00. It also indicates that this vehicle is diamond white, which the Acura website says is not an extra cost color. So the discount (if there aren't any surprises looming) is actually $1112.00, which is not out of the realm of possibility for a front wheel drive A-Spec. I say that based on some of the other posts I've seen on here where people have shared what they paid for their new RDX's. And again, this $1112.00 discount may or not even be a true discount depending on what other "fine print" the dealer may have that might not have to be disclosed in an Autotrader ad.
